I had asked this question once before about a function in the NADA package, and you provided this neat response:

[Begin quote]

An approach that may yield somewhat more self-documenting code would be to examine either the fit object or the summary object with str and then to access results by extracting named elements. Since I don't have the package in question, let me use the lm object on its help page as an example:

 ctl <- c(4.17,5.58,5.18,6.11,4.50,4.61,5.17,4.53,5.33,5.14)
 trt <- c(4.81,4.17,4.41,3.59,5.87,3.83,6.03,4.89,4.32,4.69)
 group <- gl(2,10,20, labels=c("Ctl","Trt"))
 weight <- c(ctl, trt)
 lm.D9 <- lm(weight ~ group)

 str(lm.D9)
 str(summary(lm.D9))
 summary(lm.D9)$coefficients
 summary(lm.D9)$coefficients["groupTrt", "Pr(>|t|)"]

# to get the p-value
> summary(lm.D9)$coefficients["groupTrt","Pr(>|t|)"]
[1] 0.2490232

[End quote]

However, this does not seem to work with mle2, and the methods you suggested this time don't allow me access to the "etc" (the standard error and its probability for example). Is there a way to do this similar to what you suggested for lm, where I can at anything reported by mle2?

?coef
?vcov

eeep. Further comment on "etc" not possible at this time. Mind reading equipment malfunction.
